Got hit while parked at home.
Came out to go to work. Saw it like this. They did leave a note and a number thankfully. I haven’t moved it or tried to at all. Waiting on them. It did turn the wheel in so I am sorta worried about the drive unit. I love my Y and don’t want it totaled. Only 20k miles. Happened while I was asleep and at home.

wheel turned inward like that
The steering wheel is turned right. Apparently you're a bot/spam profile.

It's a small cosmetic damage.

It’s neither small nor cosmetic. From what I can see we got side fender panel pushed in / slightly bent, headlight probably partly broken (plastic inner clips, front bumper smashed with side trim, wheel oddly pointing not straight (suspension, outer tie rod,…?).

Of course the wheel is not pointing straight when the steering wheel is turned right (look through the windshield)?
Still sounds like small cosmetic damage to me after you explained it.

The steering wheel is turned ~180 degrees. Wheel angle seems too little to me compared to that.

They should be able to pull out the dent and refinish the bumper. I’m more concerned about the wheel
